Still here stitching away

I've been stitching Mays blocks of the Christrmas BOM
Still working on the stitchery for the project. :).

When i saw my sister at Easter she asked if i'd make mug rugs for them in their favourite football teams colours. Nothing exciting but maybe reversible & not big. So i set out to make them like she wanted but thought that's to boring. So they ended up like this.
I didn't mean to make 8 each. It was only going to be 4 each as i was going  to back them with their reversed squares but before i knew it i'd cut plain squares out for backing so i just went with it. :) Hope my sister & BIL like them.

Now to finish binding a quilt that has been waiting a while for me to find some sewjo to sit at the machine. I've only a small section t ogo so should finish that tonight.

Happy Stitching,

 At the start of March i had this pile of blocks. I couldn't get my head around how to turn all these differing block sizes into a quilt...
